A Family Tribute to...Mrs. Doris Veal

Mrs. Veal. above, was one of my Mother's best friend.

Mrs. Veal, being 92 years young, just left this life for her real 'Home'.

Being a real Southern lady , she and my Mom always referred to each other as 'Mrs. Veal' and 'Mrs. Baxter'.

They were hilarious!

Both being widows, they worked together quilting, putting up fresh vegetables and fruit, shopped together, attended community events together, traveled and saved each other seats in church. Both had the same values, ethics, faith and positive sense of humor.

BUT without a shadow of doubt, they were entirely and most magnificently....

Very Classy Ladies.

Today they are alive in our hearts and our lives were influenced immensely by these

Southern Women of Excellence.

"Welcome Home, Mrs. Veal", my Mama would have said in greeting...

"What took you so long?"
